Re: Our "Daydream"279".... It's OURS!!! carpet in 63Jan 17, 2009 10:04 pm just had a look and i couldn't find it - had all the colour selections except downpipes. we are having a similar brick from boral after nearly going with a pgh brick and we are having under eaves paperbark, and downpipes too. just curious if your downpipes are going to be paperbark too. sorry if you had already posted it i should go to bed Kylie handover happened 15/6/09...love living on an acre but still so much to do!

Love your brick colour - I love light bricks, and your kitchen is devine! Well done My karma ran over your dogma Re: Our "Daydream"279".... It's OURS!!! carpet in 69Jan 21, 2009 7:08 pm love your features in the kitchen very nice!!!! thanks for the down pipe colours. we are having a light brick and i was having a flat spin that paperbark won't go with our selections lol. my partner thinks I'm crazy!!!!!!!!!!!! I even dream about my colour selections!
You must be so excited to see your house coming together!!!!!!!!!!! you have got great taste (all kylie's do ) Kylie handover happened 15/6/09...love living on an acre but still so much to do! Re: Our "Daydream"279".... It's OURS!!! carpet in 70Jan 21, 2009 9:40 pm Looks great! But you know I'm going to ask about those cabinet handles: they can't be from the standard range or else I would have chosen them!! I've been looking at the same (or very similar) and thinking of buying them to swap over later! Do tell... !!! Re: Our "Daydream"279".... It's OURS!!! carpet in 71Jan 21, 2009 11:13 pm We were able to liase directly with the cabinet maker for our extras for the kitchen.. We included different handles, overheads and high shelves, blumotion soft closing bits for the drawers, soft closing bits for the cupboards,built-in rubbish bin, 925mm high instead of 900mm high, 50mm deep square edge instead of 38mm, and of cource the laminate is halifax( which was definately not a coral selection)
Maybe living in a small city of only 30,000 has its advantages... Maybe you could ask your builder to leave the handles off so you can do them after handover..ps, thanks re comment on handles...I love them also ssshhh Built a modified "Daydream 279" ..

I think i chose the same kitchen door handles too... Great choice HOME- is where your story begins! Re: Our "Daydream"279".... It's OURS!!! carpet in 74Jan 22, 2009 11:06 pm Thats looking fantastic.... and it seems to be moving along pretty fast.
I'm loving your kitchen and the colours! Re: Our "Daydream"279".... It's OURS!!! carpet in 75Jan 23, 2009 6:52 am is that granite Kylie or diamond gloss - looks great whatever it is. love, love, love your kitchen House is also looking really nice on the exterior! Are you putting a patio/alfresco/summer lounge (whatever they are bloody called!) on after handover?
I hope our house turns out as nice as what yours is looking Kylie handover happened 15/6/09...love living on an acre but still so much to do! Re: Our "Daydream"279".... It's OURS!!! carpet in 76Jan 23, 2009 1:53 pm *Snap* again - we're also having white bathroom cabinets with the coloured laminex on top!! We're having mushroom linear in the main and oyster linear in the ensuite though.
Gee you've got great taste!! Looking great though, you must be really excited to see how its all coming together. Can't be long to go now can it? Do you know when to expect it to be completed or is that a silly question? Re: Our "Daydream"279".... It's OURS!!! carpet in 77Jan 23, 2009 5:30 pm JellyLegs, no idea when it will be finished... Havent asked the builder yet.. dont want to jinx it
Kylie81: yep, we will be putting a spanline (or something) in after handover.. hopefully sooner rather than later IYKWIM The kitchen benchtops are a laminate from Halifax vogul, crea style.In real life it definately looks like granite. In our last house built 4yrs ago ( we chose the same top again), the realestate agent even advertised it as granite many times till I corrected them. Everyone that came to our last place said the same!! Excellent quality as well. Basically it is the same as a diamondgloss finish... We know as we lived with it for 3.5 yrs! This time we have gone for a 50mm edge instead of a standard 38mm. Looks really good! I've also seen your colour selection Kylie81, and they are similar to ours so your exterior will look GREAT!

Love your colour selections and the internal sliding doors are special! My karma ran over your dogma 1 11004 1 15753 they can, it's a fairly standard solution when the slab isn't recessed. the falls need to be in the main floor, if it hasn't been done then you need to ask them to redo… 4 6581 |
